Sobre el cuadro
Gaspard Dughet (1615-1675) was born in Rome from a French father and an Italian mother. He first trained there with his brother-in-law, Nicolas Poussin (1594-1665), then made several trips in the peninsula during which he befriended other great painters of his generation such as Pietro da Cortona (1596-1669) and Guglielmo Cortese (1628-1679) but never left Italy. In 1657 Dughet was elected to the Accademia di S Luca and rapidly became one of the most distinguished landscape painters working in Rome in the 17th century, painting decorative frescoes and many easel paintings for such major Roman patrons as Pope Innocent X and the Colonna family.

This painting is a good example of the early production of Gaspard Dughet when he painted in a cool silvery tonality. It depicts a landscape dominated by slender trees, which resembles birches, and a path receding into the distance. Two pastoral figures, dressed all'antica, are seen from the back and delicately modelled by patches of light reflecting on their bodies. Dughet would further developed this classical trend in a manner close to that of Poussin and appears therefore a good example of Poussin's influence on 17th century landscape painters.
